Nvidia Rolls Out DLSS 4.5 Super Resolution to All RTX Users via Nvidia App

Early testing points to cleaner upscaling in performance modes at the cost of higher GPU load.

Overview

  • DLSS 4.5 is live in Nvidia App v11.0.6 for all GeForce RTX GPUs, with new Super Resolution Model M and Model L presets plus Preset K available through per‑game overrides.
  • The rollout covers 400+ games and apps, and activation requires updating the Nvidia App and installing the latest Game Ready driver.
  • 6x Multi Frame Generation and Dynamic MFG remain unavailable until spring 2026 and will be limited to RTX 50‑series GPUs upon release.
  • Developers can integrate DLSS 4.5 today via the DLSS Super Resolution Streamline plugin, alongside the RTX Neural Texture Compression SDK v0.9 that delivers faster BC7 encoding, quicker inference, and major memory savings.
  • Hands‑on testing finds reduced ghosting and sharper detail in Performance and Ultra Performance modes, with reports of higher compute demands, increased GPU power draw, and occasional frame‑rate or latency trade‑offs on older cards.
